/  ~  j  HE  Metal  Door  &  Trim  Go.  in  its 
seven  years  of  consistent  growth  has 
^  j  effectively  solved  the  varied  problems 

peculiar  to  this  industry.  This  is  evidenced 
by  the  development  from  a  plant  covering 
45,000  square  feet  to  one  of  more  than  6V2 
acres.  It  has  equipped  this  plant  with  mod¬ 
ern  machinery — largely  of  its  own  design  and 
construction — to  secure  maximum  efficiency 
in  production;  it  has  developed  an  organiza¬ 
tion  of  technical  men  trained  to  meet  prob¬ 
lems  in  the  building  industry;  it  has  placed 
itself  in  a  position  to  render  real  service.

IN  STRIVING  for  the  utmost  in  beauty ^ 
permanence,  safety  and  utility,  the  Arch¬ 
itect  turns  more  and  more  to  the  use  of  hollow 
metal.  Naturally,  as  manufacturers  of  doors 
and  trim  of  hollow  metal  construction,  we  are 
mutually  interested  with  the  Architect  in  ex¬ 
panding  its  application  and  many  uses. 

The  following  detail  pages  aim  to  provide  the 
essential  information  needed  by  the  Architect 
and  Builder  in  detailing  and  specifying  hollow 
metal  doors  and  trim  to  meet  almost  any 
situation.

ROLLED  FRAMES 

[  General  Description  ] 


10 W  first  cost  and  definite  economy  in  construction 
J  have  combined  to  create  a  rapidly  increasing 
demand  for  rolled  type  frames.  The  lower  cost  is  made 
possible  through  standardization  and  volume  pro¬ 
duction. 

The  saving  of  time  in  construction  is  obvious;  (1) 
Frames  are  delivered  to  the  building  completely  as¬ 
sembled,  ready  to  install,  and  can  be  erected  in  one 
operation;  (2)  They  are  made  to  exact  size,  with  all 
cut-outs  for  hardware,  eliminating  costly  field  labor 
necessary  to  fit  wood  doors  to  individual  openings; 
(3)  They  eliminate  the  enforced  waiting  period  neces¬ 
sary  between  thorough  drying  out  of  plaster  and 
application  of  wood  jambs  and  casings. 

Rolled  Type  Frames  as  manufactured  by  the  Metal 
Door  &  Trim  Co.  have  unusually  sharp,  clean-cut 
lines  because  they  are  made  of  16  ga.  furniture  stock 
steel  by  a  special  rolled  process. 

Increased  plant  facilities  and  special  attention  given  to 
these  frames,  make  possible  prompt  shipments. 


FRAMES,  MULLIONS  AND  TRANSOM  BARS 

[  Rolled  Type  ] 


FRAMES  RFl  to  RF8  are  standard  as  to  profile  and  wall  thick¬ 
ness,  but  can  be  supplied  in  any  width  and  height.  These  are 
designed  for  2 "  plaster,  3",  4"  or  6"  tile  partitions  and  can  be  used 
with  either  wood,  kalamein  or  hollow  metal  doors  and  sash  or 
1  in  thickness. 

Any  of  these  can  be  adapted  to  walls  of  a  greater  thickness  as  illus¬ 
trated  by  types  RFl 5  to  RF18,  and  to  wood,  Simplex  or  similar 
partitions  as  shown  by  types  RF13  and  RF14.  Standard  frames  can 
also  be  arranged  for  stationary  doors  and  sash,  or  glass  panels,  similar 
to  types  RF3A  and  RF3B.  These  can  also  be  used  as  cased  openings 
and  arranged  for  double  doors  as  shown  by  types  RF9  and  RF10. 

Frames  with  casing  one  side  only,  or  with  applied  trim  as  illustrated 
by  types  RFll,  RF12,  RF19  and  RF20,  or  for  walls  or  doors  and 
sash  of  thicknesses  other  than  shown,  are  special  and  are  more  ex¬ 
pensive  than  standard  frames. 

Mullions  RM1  to  RM8  and  transom  bars  RTB1  to  RTB8  are  stand¬ 
ard  and  can  be  used  with  any  of  the  frames  illustrated  with  exception 
of  types  RFl  and  RF2  which  require  special  mullions  and  transom 
bars.  Any  of  these  can  be  arranged  for  stationary  doors  and  sash,  or 
glass  panels  as  illustrated  by  types  RTB1A,  RTB1B,  RTB1D,  RM5A 
and  RM5D. 

Where  required,  mullions  and  transom  bars  of  the  formed  type  illus¬ 
trated  on  pages  108  to  110  can  be  used  with  rolled  frames.  They  are, 
however,  more  costly  than  the  rolled  type. 

Frames,  mullions  and  transom  bars  illustrated  are  for  doors  and  sash 
hung  on  butt  hinges.  However,  any  of  the  arrangements  for  hardware 
shown  on  pages  119  to  123  are  in  general  adaptable  to  all  types. 

Plinths  can  be  supplied  where  desired. 

Where  Underwriters’  labels  are  required,  refer  to  “Fire  Underwriters’ 
Requirements,”  pages  182  to  186.

HARDWARE 

FOR  SWING  DOORS  AND  SASH 


ILLUSTRATIONS  on  the  succeeding  pages  cover  standard  ar¬ 
rangements  for  practically  all  types  of  hardware  in  general  use. 

Stiles  and  rails  shown  will  take  regular  beveled,  rounded  and  rab- 
betted  face  hardw  are. 

Templet  Hardware  should  always  be  specified  for  hollow  metal 
work  and  is  ordinarily  furnished  under  separate  contract. 

Schedules  and  templets  of  hardw  are  for  each  opening  are  required 
before  materials  can  be  placed  in  production,  as  all  mortising  for 
hardware  is  done  while  steel  is  “flat”.  Templets  may  be  either  blue 
print  or  physical.  Hardw  are  manufacturers  can  usually  furnish  blue 
print  templets  on  very  short  notice. 

Altho  frames  only  are  being  supplied,  lock  as  well  as  strike  plate 
templets  must  be  furnished  in  order  to  properly  locate  the  strike 
plates  in  the  frames. 

Finished  hardware,  except  as  noted,  should  be  shipped  to  our  plant, 
as  it  is  not  only  customary  but  good  practice  to  apply  hardware  at 
the  factory. 

Door  checks,  brackets,  transom  lifters  and  hardware  of  a  similar 
nature  that  would  interfere  with  crating,  as  well  as  hardware  for 
combination  type  frames,  should  be  delivered  direct  to  the  building 
and  applied  there  by  the  contractor  erecting  the  doors. 


HANDS  OF  DOORS 

THE  “Hand”  of  a  swing  door  is  de¬ 
termined  by  facing  the  door  from  the 
outside.  The  “outside”  is  the  street  side 
of  an  exterior  door,  and  the  corridor 
or  hall  side  of  a  room  door.  The  “outside” 
of  a  communicating  door,  from  room  to 
room,  is  the  side  from  which  butts  cannot 
he  seen  when  door  is  closed. 

The  “outside”  of  twin  doors  is  the  space 
between  the  two  doors. 

The  “outside”  of  a  bath  room  or  closet 
door  is  the  corridor  or  room  side. 

Door  opening  inward  or  from  you,  with 
butts  on  left,  is  left  hand  swing  and  takes 
a  regular  left  hand  lock  if  key  operates 
from  outside. 

Door  opening  inward  or  from  you,  with 
butts  on  right,  is  right  hand  swing  and 
takes  a  regular  right  hand  lock  if  key 
operates  from  outside. 

Door  opening  outward  or  toward  you, 
with  butts  on  right,  is  left  hand  swing  and 
takes  a  right  hand  reverse  bevel  lock  if 
key  operates  from  outside.  If  key  ope- 


rates  from  inside  regular  left  hand  lock 
is  used. 

Door  opening  outward  or  toward  you, 
with  butts  on  left,  is  right  hand  swing 
and  takes  a  left  hand  reverse  bevel  lock 
if  key  operates  from  outside.  If  key 
operates  from  inside  regular  right  hand 
lock  is  used. 

If  key  operates  from  both  sides  regular 
hand  lock  is  used. 

If  doors  are  in  pairs,  active  door  deter¬ 
mines  hand,  and  the  side  from  which  key 
operates  governs  the  hand  of  lock. 

The  hand  of  a  casement  sash  is  deter¬ 
mined  by  facing  the  sash  from  the  room 
side. 

If  butts  are  on  the  left  it  is  left  hand 
swing,  irrespective  of  whether  sash  open 
in  or  out. 

If  butts  are  on  the  right  it  is  right  hand 
swing. 

If  sash  are  in  pairs,  active  sash  or  the 
one  to  which  fastener  is  attached  deter¬ 
mines  hand.

Prime  Finish  (Doors  and  Sash) — Re- 

fore  assembling,  metal  panels  are  paint¬ 
ed  on  the  inside.  After  assembling,  all 
oil,  dirt  and  rust  are  removed.  Doors 
and  sash  are  thoroughly  coated  on  the 
inside  and  outside  with  rust  resisting 
paint  by  a  dip  process,  and  then  baked. 
Exposed  surfaces  are  filled  where  re¬ 
quired,  each  coat  baked  and  sanded. 
Priming  coat  of  paint  is  then  applied 
and  baked. 

Prime  Finish  (All  Other  Work) — After 
assembling,  all  oil,  dirt  and  rust  are 
removed.  Exposed  surfaces  are  filled 
where  required,  each  coat  baked  and 
sanded.  Priming  coat  of  paint  is  then 
applied  to  all  surfaces,  both  inside  and 
outside,  and  baked. 

Plain  Enamel  Finish — Prime  coat  is 
thoroughly  sanded,  after  which  three 
coats  of  enamel  of  a  color  as  selected 
are  applied  to  all  exposed  surfaces. 
Each  coat  is  baked  and  rubbed,  the 


Wi 


final  coat  being  nibbed  to  an  egg-shell 
gloss. 

Grained  Finish — Prime  coat  is  thor¬ 
oughly  sanded,  after  which  all  exposed 
surfaces  are  hand  grained  to  match 
sample  selected,  and  then  baked.  Two 
coats  of  finishing  varnish  are  then 
applied,  each  coat  baked  and  rubbed, 
the  final  coat  being  rubbed  to  an  egg¬ 
shell  gloss. 

Crating — The  finished  products  are  sub¬ 
stantially  crated  to  guard  against  dam¬ 
age  in  transit. 


Combination  type  frames,  when  fin¬ 
ished  in  baked  enamel,  are  protected 
by  oiled  paper,  and  crated  individually. 
Crating  is  not  removed  until  after 
walls  have  been  plastered. 

Erection — All  work  is  erected  plumb  and 
true  by  skilled  mechanics.  Rough  bucks 
and  frames  are  set  and  braced  in  posi¬ 
tion  before  partitions  are  built.  The 
doors,  cabinet  jambs,  casings,  etc.,  are 
erected  after  plastering  has  been  com¬ 
pleted  and  the  floors  are  broom  clean. 


GENERAL  DESCRIPTION 
OF  HOLLOW  STEEL  FRAMES,  MULLIONS 
AND  TRANSOM  BARS 

[  Rolled  Type  ] 


Materials — Steel  is  of  the  highest  grade 
commercial  furniture  stock  of  U.  S. 
standard  gauge. 

Workmanship — All  work  is  executed  by 
skilled  mechanics  and  is  of  the  finest 
quality;  neat  in  appearance  and  free 
from  defects. 

Frames — Frames  are  cold  rolled  of  16 
gauge  steel.  The  jamb  portions  of  side 
members  are  coped  and  tenoned  to 
heads,  while  casing  portions  are  mitred 
and  acetylene  welded. 

Frames  are  provided  with  wire  anchors 
for  securing  to  walls,  and  clip  angles  at 
bottom  for  fastening  to  floor.  Special 
anchoring  arrangement  is  provided  for 
frames  in  plaster,  wood  stud  or  Simplex 
partitions. 

Glass  panels  are  retained  by  removable 
cold  drawn  channels  coped  at  corners 
and  secured  to  frames  by  oval  head 
machine  screws. 

Transom  Bars  and  Mullions — Transom 
bars  and  mullions  are  cold  drawn  of  18 
gauge  steel  secured  to  frames  by  con¬ 
cealed  clip  angles  and  screws. 

Mullions  are  provided  with  channels 
for  fastening  to  floor. 


Scribe  Mouldings — Mouldings  are  cold 
drawn  of  18  gauge  steel,  mitred  or 
coped  at  corners  and  secured  to  frames 
by  oval  head  machine  screws. 

Finishing — After  assembling,  all  oil,  dirt 
and  rust  are  removed.  Where  required, 
exposed  surfaces  are  filled  and  frames 
then  receive  one  dip  or  spray  coat  of 
red  oxide  primer.  Frames  for  exterior 
openings  receive  two  coats  of  primer. 
Final  finish  is  applied  at  the  building 
by  painter  contractor. 

Provisions  for  Hardware — All  work  is 
properly  mortised,  reinforced,  drilled 
and  tapped  for  the  reception  of  mortise 
hardware  and  reinforced  where  neces¬ 
sary  for  surface  hardware.  Drilling  and 
tapping  for  surface  hardware  is  done 
at  the  building  by  the  contractor 
erecting  the  doors. 

Cover  boxes  are  provided  in  back  of 
all  hardware  cut-outs. 

Erection — Frames  are  set  by  skilled  me¬ 
chanics  and  braced  in  position  until 
partitions  are  built.  After  walls  have 
been  erected  and  before  the  mortar 
has  set,  each  frame  is  checked  to  see 
that  it  is  plumb  and  true. 


ELEVATOR  ENCLOSURES 


THE  Metal  Door  &  Trim  Co.  have  devoted  considerable  time 
and  thought  to  the  development  of  hollow  steel  elevator  en¬ 
closures — not  only  from  the  standpoint  of  appearance,  stability,  and 
protection  against  fire — but  from  that  of  smooth  and  efficient  opera¬ 
tion  as  well.  Noise  has  been  reduced  to  a  minimum. 

Doors,  amply  reinforced  for  hardware  and  operating  equipment,  are 
designed  solely  for  use  in  connection  with  elevator  enclosures.  They 
are  exceptionally  sturdy  (Stiles  and  Rails  of  12  gauge  steel)  to  with¬ 
stand  the  hard  usage  to  which  elevator  doors  are  subjected. 

Hanger  Housings,  of  heavy  steel  plate,  are  supported — independent 
of  the  walls — by  structural  angles  extending  from  sill  to  ceiling. 
Angles  also  act  as  supports  for  door  closers  and  pneumatic  operators. 

Frames,  formed  of  heavy  steel — with  welded  corners — are  secured 
to  hanger  housings  and  sills.  These  serve  only  to  trim  the  openings; 
the  weight  of  the  doors  is  carried  by  the  hanger  housings  and  struc¬ 
tural  angles.  This  type  of  construction  is  unusally  rigid  and  eliminates 
sagging  and  cracking  of  walls — usually  prevalent  in  ordinary  frame 
construction. 

Since  smoothness  and  efficiency  of  operation  depend  in  a  great  mea¬ 
sure  on  the  door-operating  hardware  and  sills,  and  the  manner  in 
which  they  are  installed,  we  recommend  that  these  items  be  included 
in  our  contract.  Incidentally  this  practice  is  more  satisfactory  to  all 
concerned,  inasmuch  as  it  eliminates  division  of  responsibility. 


STYLES  OF 

ELEVATOR  ENCLOSURES 


ILLUSTRATIONS  cover  all  styles  of  enclosures  in 
general  use.  Suitable  provisions  are  made  for  door 
operating  hardware. 

Enclosures  are  standard  in  construction  and  can  be 
had  in  any  width  and  height,  and  to  suit  any  wall 
thickness. 

These  enclosures  can  be  supplied  with  doors,  frames, 
sills  and  casings  in  any  of  the  designs  and  profiles  shown 
in  their  respective  sections.

GENERAL  DESCRIPTION 
OF  HOLLOW  STEEL  ELEVATOR 
ENCLOSURES 


Materials — Materials  used  are  the  best 
of  their  respective  kinds.  Steel  is  of  the 
highest  grade  commercial  furniture 
stock  of  U.  S.  standard  gauge. 

Workmanship — All  work  is  executed  by 
skilled  mechanics  and  is  of  the  finest 
grade ;  neat  in  appearance  and  free 
from  defects. 

Doors  (Metal  Panel  Type)— Panels  are 
constructed  of  two  18  gauge  steel 
plates  separated  by  heat -retarding 
filler.  Panel  mouldings — cold  drawn  to 
profile — are  fitted  to  panels,  mitred 
and  welded  at  corners,  forming  a 
continuous  frame  around  panels. 

Stiles  and  rails  are  cold  rolled  of  12 
gauge  steel  and  continuously  inter¬ 
locked  to  panel  mouldings.  Stiles  are 
fitted  to  rails  and  welded  at  joints. 
Stiffener  channels  extending  full  width 
are  welded  inside  the  doors  at  the 
bottom. 

Continuous  rubber  bumpers,  secured  in 
place  by  neat  cold  drawn  mouldings, 
are  provided  for  center-parting  doors. 
For  all  other  types,  rubber  bumpers  are 
fastened  to  frames  and  sills. 

Two  cast  iron  guides  are  attached  to 
the  bottom  of  each  sliding  door.  Flush 
bolts  are  used  as  guides  when  doors  are 
combination  slide  and  swing. 

Doors  (Flush  Type)  Doors  are  con¬ 
structed  of  two  18  gauge  steel  plates 


locked  together  with  special  inter¬ 
locking  members  welded  to  plates. 
These  members  are  spaced  not  more 
than  6 "  apart  and  extend  full  height 
of  doors.  Continuous  reinforcements 
and  stiffener  channels  are  welded  inside 
the  doors  at  top  and  bottom,  and  in 
both  sides.  Compressed  cork  is  placed 
in  doors  to  eliminate  metallic  sound. 

Continuous  rubber  bumpers,  secured 
in  place  by  neat  cold  drawn  mouldings, 
are  provided  for  center-parting  doors. 
For  all  other  types,  rubber  bumpers 
are  fastened  to  frames  and  sills. 

Two  cast  iron  guides  are  attached  to 
the  bottom  of  each  sliding  door.  Flush 
bolts  are  used  as  guides  when  doors 
are  combination  slide  and  swing. 

Doors  (Glass  Panel  Type) — Glass  panels 
are  held  in  place  by  removable  mould¬ 
ings  which  are  secured  to  stationary 
mouldings  with  oval  head  machine 
screws.  Mouldings  are  cold  drawn  to 
profile  and  are  made  into  frames  with 
corners  mitred  and  welded.  Stiles  and 
rails  are  interlocked  to  stationary 
mouldings  as  described  under  “Metal 
Panel  Type.” 

When  doors  are  “Flush  Type,”  sta¬ 
tionary  mouldings  are  interlocked  to 
plates  in  a  similar  manner. 

M untins  are  constructed  of  cold  drawn 


interlocking  shapes,  fitted  and  welded 
to  panel  mouldings. 

Where  mirrors  occur,  18  gauge  steel 
plates  are  provided  for  backing  up. 

Stationary  Panels — Panels  are  con¬ 
structed  as  previously  described  for 
doors,  with  the  exception  that  no 
provisions  are  made  for  hardware  or 
guides.  Panels  are  secured  to  frames 
at  the  head  and  side  with  machine 
screws,  and  held  in  place  at  the  bottom 
by  channels  fastened  to  sills. 

Grilles — Grilles  are  of  14  gauge  per¬ 
forated  steel  securely  welded  in  bottom 
rail  of  doors. 

Glass — Glass,  which  is  usually  furnished 
by  us,  is  set  in  rubber  inserts  and  putty 
and  held  in  place  by  removable  mould¬ 
ing  frames. 

Mirrors  are  set  in  the  same  manner, 
with  the  exception  that  they  are  backed 
up  with  felt. 

Hanger  Housings — Hanger  housings  are 
formed  of  two  12  gauge  steel  plates 
spot-welded  together  and  firmly  fast¬ 
ened  to  angle  supports  at  both  ends 
with  machine  bolts  and  nuts. 

Hanger  Covers — Hanger  covers  are 
formed  of  16  or  18  gauge  steel  and 
attached  to  hanger  housings  by  con¬ 
cealed  method.  Ready  access  to  hangers 
is  permitted  without  removing  covers. 

Angle  Supports — Hanger  housings  are 
supported  independent  of  the  walls  by 
two  structural  steel  angles  extending 
from  sill  to  either  steel  or  concrete  beam 
overhead  and  securely  fastened  in 
place.  One  of  these  angles  is  located  to 


act  as  a  closer  support  when  closers  or 
pneumatic  operators  are  used. 

Frames  (Combination  Buck,  Jamb 
and  Trim  Type) — Frames  are  formed 
of  16  gauge  steel,  mitred  and  welded  at 
corners.  They  are  securely  fastened  to 
hanger  housings  with  machine  screws 
and  to  the  sills  with  clip  angles  and  cap 
screws.  Where  required,  a  suitable 
number  of  rubber  bumpers  is  provided. 

Frames  (Combination  Buck  and 
Jamb  Type) — Frames  are  formed  of 
12,  14  or  16  gauge  steel,  either  mitred 
or  coped  and  welded  at  corners.  They 
are  securely  fastened  to  hanger  hous¬ 
ings  with  machine  screws  and  to  the 
sills  with  clip  angles  and  cap  screws. 
Where  required,  a  suitable  number  of 
rubber  bumpers  is  provided. 

Sills — Sills  are  either  close  grain  gray 
iron  or  bronze  castings  with  non-slip 
surfaces,  securely  anchored  to  either 
structural  steel  or  concrete.  The  grooves 
for  door  guides  are  machined.  Bumper 
angles,  secured  to  sills  with  cap  screws, 
are  provided  where  required. 

Facias — Facias  are  formed  of  either  14 
or  16  gauge  steel,  substantially  rein¬ 
forced  where  necessarv,  and  securelv 

V  7  V 

fastened  in  place. 

Casings — Casings  are  cold  drawn  of  18 
gauge  steel,  mitred  and  welded  at 
corners,  and  secured  to  frames  bv 
concealed  fastenings  or  oval  head  ma¬ 
chine  screws. 

Scribe  Mouldings — Mouldings  are  cold 
drawn  of  18  gauge  steel  either  mitred 
or  coped  at  corners,  and  secured  to 
frames  by  oval  head  machine  screws. 


Plinths— Plinths  are  formed  of  18  gauge 
steel  and  secured  to  frames  by  con¬ 
cealed  fastenings  or  oval  head  machine 
screws. 

Provisions  for  Hardware — All  work  is 
mortised  where  required,  reinforced, 
drilled  and  tapped  at  the  factory  to 
receive  hardware,  except  that  drilling 
and  tapping  for  bar  locks,  pneumatic 
operators,  door  closers,  rack  and  pawl 
devices,  interlocks  and  striker  plates  are 
done  at  the  building. 

Frames  for  combination  slide  and  swing 
type  doors  are  provided  with  cover 
boxes  in  back  of  all  hardware  cut-outs. 

Prime  Finish  (Doors) — Before  assem¬ 
bling,  metal  panels  are  painted  on  the 
inside.  After  assembling,  all  oil,  dirt 
and  rust  are  removed.  Doors  are 
thoroughly  coated  on  the  inside  and 
outside  with  rust -resisting  paint  by  a 
dip  process,  and  then  baked. 

Exposed  surfaces  are  filled  where  re¬ 
quired,  each  coat  baked  and  sanded. 
Priming  coat  of  paint  is  then  applied 
and  baked. 

Prime  Finish  (All  Other  Work) — After 
assembling,  all  oil,  dirt  and  rust  are 
removed.  Exposed  surfaces  are  filled 
where  required,  each  coat  baked  and 
sanded.  Priming  coat  of  paint  is  then 


applied  to  all  surfaces,  both  inside  and 
outside,  and  baked. 

Plain  Enamel  Finish — Prime  coat  is 
thoroughly  sanded,  after  which  three 
coats  of  enamel — of  a  color  as  selected 
— are  applied  to  all  exposed  surfaces. 
Each  coat  is  baked  and  rubbed,  the 
final  coat  being  rubbed  to  an  egg-shell 
gloss. 

Grained  Finish — Prime  coat  is  thor¬ 
oughly  sanded,  after  which  all  exposed 
surfaces  are  hand  grained  to  match 
sample  selected,  and  then  baked.  Two 
coats  of  finishing  varnish  are  then 
applied,  each  coat  baked  and  rubbed, 
the  final  coat  being  rubbed  to  an  egg¬ 
shell  gloss. 

Crating — The  finished  products  are  sub¬ 
stantially  crated  to  guard  against  dam¬ 
age  in  transit.  Frames  when  finished 
in  baked  enamel  are  protected  by  oiled 
paper  and  crated  individually.  Grating 
is  not  removed  until  after  walls  have 
been  plastered. 

Erection — All  work  is  erected  plumb 
and  true  by  skilled  mechanics.  The 
frames,  hanger  housings,  angle  sup¬ 
ports,  sills,  etc.,  are  set  before  walls  are 
built.  The  doors,  casings,  etc.,  are 
erected  after  plastering  has  been  com¬ 
pleted  and  floors  are  broom  clean. 


HARDWARE  FOR 
ELEVATOR  ENCLOSURES 


^Cr> 

ON  THE  succeeding  pages  are  illustrated  various  arrangements 
showing  clearances  required  for  Pneumatic  Door  Operators  and 
Door  Closers,  together  with  a  complete  specification  covering  hard¬ 
ware  of  practically  every  make  and  type. 

Experience  has  shown  that  the  operation  of  elevator  enclosures 
is  more  consistently  efficient  when  hardware,  in  addition  to  all  other 
items,  is  included  in  the  door  manufacturer's  contract.  Incidentally, 
this  practice  is  generally  more  satisfactory  to  all  concerned,  since  it 
eliminates  division  of  responsibility. 

In  the  event  hardware  is  furnished  under  separate  contract,  it  is 
important  that  schedules  and  templets  be  promptly  furnished,  to 
permit  drilling  and  tapping  for  hardware  before  assembling,  and 
mortising  while  steel  is  “flat."  Templets  may  be  either  blue  print  or 
physical. 

All  finished  hardware  should  be  shipped  direct  to  the  building  for 
application,  except  butt  hinges,  flush  bolts,  latches,  and  door  handles, 
which  are  usually  applied  at  our  factory.

CLEARANCES  SHOWN  ARE  MINIMUM 

SPACE  REQUIRED 
FOR 

DOOR  CLOSERS 


Owing  to  varying  conditions  in  elevator 
hatch  construction  and  the  different 
clearances  required  for  the  various  makes  and 
types  of  pneumatic  operators,  it  is  almost 
impossible  to  indicate  exact  space  required 
for  each. 

Above  are  illustrated  arrangements  giving 
minimum  clearances  most  generally  needed. 

Space  marked  (X)  to  be  kept  clear  full 
height  of  hatch  for  car  cam. 

Space  marked  (Y)  on  under  side  of  plat¬ 
form,  from  front  edge  back  to  safety  chan¬ 


nels,  to  be  kept  as  clear  as  possible  for  cam 
mechanism. 

Dimension  A  must  be  at  least  8}4"  if  B  is 
less  than  6}4'r . 

Dimension  A  may  be  disregarded  if  B  is  6>£  " 
or  more. 

Dimension  C  must  be  at  least  10"  if  D  is 
less  than  6 y2" . 

Dimension  C  may  be  6"  if  D  is  or  more. 
Plans  1  and  3  show  elevators  adjoining  an¬ 
other  hatch.  The  same  dimensions  would 
apply  if  the  elevators  were  adjacent  to  a 
wall,  as  in  Plan  2. 


SPACE  REQUIRED 
FOR 

PNEUMATIC  DOOR  OPERATORS 

(SIDE  ARM  ENGINES) 


FOR  CONVENIENCE  WE  HERE  LIST  COMRINATIONS 
OF  DOOR-OPERATING  HARDWARE  MOST  COMMONLY  USED 
IN  CONNECTION  WITH  THE  TYPES  OF  ELEVATORS 
UNDER  WHICH  THEY  ARE  GROUPED 


Full  Automatic  Elevators  (Such  as 
Otis  Signal  Control) 

1.  Full  Automatic  Door  Operation 

Hangers 

Pneumatic  Operators  with  Supports 
(Overhead  or  side  arm  engines) 
Electric  Interlocks 
Emergency  Release  Switches 

2.  Semi-Automatic  Door  Operation 

Hangers 

Door  Closers  with  Supports 

Electric  Interlocks 

Emergency  Release  Switches 

Rack  and  Pawl  Devices 

Car  Trips  and  Striker  Plates 

Note — Combination  l  is  ordinarily  used  in 
connection  with  elevators  of  this  type.  The  cost 
of  combination  2  is  considerably  less  than 
combination  1. 

Car  Switch  Elevators  Equipped  with 
Automatic  Leveling  Devices,  and 
Straight  Car  Switch  Elevators 

1.  Full  Automatic  Door  Operation 

Hangers 

Pneumatic  Operators  with  Supports 
(Overhead  or  side  arm  engines) 
Electric  Interlocks 
Emergency  Release  Switches 

2.  Semi-Automatic  Door  Operation 

Hangers 

Door  Closers  with  Supports 
Electric  Interlocks 


Emergency  Release  Switches 
Rack  and  Pawl  Devices 
Car  Trips  and  Striker  Plates 

3.  Manual  Door  Operation 

Hangers 

Rarlock  Interlocks 

Emergency  Release  Switches 

4.  Manual  Door  Operation 

Hangers 

Bar  Locks,  Gravity  Locks  or  Latches 

Note — When  combination  1  is  used  with 
Straight  Car  Switch  Elevators,  the  door  opera¬ 
tion  is  not  entirely  automatic  as  the  controlling 
cam  is  operated  by  means  of  a  hand  lever. 

Combination  3  is  most  generally  used  for 
Freight  or  Service  Elevators,  where  low  cost 
and  safety,  rather  than  speed  and  quietness  of 
operation,  are  the  primary  considerations. 

Combination  4  not  being  equipped  with  inter¬ 
locks  does  not  prohibit  the  starting  or  operation 
of  elevators  while  doors  are  open  or  unlocked. 
Interlocks  are  required  by  law  in  most  cities, 
and  their  use  generally  effects  a  saving  on 
Public  Liability  Insurance. 

Dual  Control  (Combination  Push 
Button  and  Car  Switch  Elevators) 
and  Push  Button  Elevators 

5.  Semi-Automatic  Door  Operation 

Hangers 

Door  Closers  with  Supports 
Electrical  and  Mechanical  Interlocks 
Door  Handles 

6.  Manual  Door  Operation 

Hangers 

Electrical  and  Mechanical  Interlocks 
Gravity  Locks,  Latches  or  Door 
Handles. 


Note — Electrical  and  Mechanical  Interlocks 
vary  in  construction  and  operation.  These  form 
an  important  part  of  the  controlling  mechan¬ 
ism  of  Push  Button  and  Dual  Control  Elevators 
and  should  always  be  included  in  the  elevator 
contract. 

A — One  of  the  types  most  commonly  used,  con¬ 
sists  of  an  electric  interlock  operated  by  a 
mechanical  latch  which  also  acts  as  a  lock  on 
the  door  closer  arm.  Mechanical  latch  is  oper¬ 
ated  through  a  sill  trip  by  means  of  an  auto¬ 
matically  operated  cam  attached  to  the  car. 

GENERAL 

Combination  slide  and  swing  type  doors 
must  be  equipped  with  butt  binges  and 
flush  bolts  in  addition  to  the  other  hard¬ 
ware. 

Codes  governing  the  installation  of  ele¬ 
vator  door-operating  hardware  should  be 
considered,  as  one  of  the  requirements  of 
most  states  and  cities  is  that  all  openings 
must  be  equipped  with  Electric  Interlocks. 

In  Pennsylvania,  the  code  requires  that 
openings  for  all  types  of  elevators  be  pro¬ 
vided  with  a  combined  Electrical  and  Me¬ 
chanical  Interlock,  so  arranged  that  it  can 
only  be  operated  by  the  car  when  at  the 
landing.  (This  device  should  be  included 
in  the  elevator  contract.) 


B — Another  type  frequently  used,  consists  of  an 
arm  mounted  on  the  door  which  engages  an 
interlock  attached  to  the  frame,  automatically 
locking  the  doors  when  in  a  fully  closed  posi¬ 
tion.  Gravity  locks  or  latches  are  sometimes 
specified  for  the  purpose  of  holding  doors  closed 
until  contact  is  made  in  the  interlock,  while  in 
some  cases  door  handles  only  are  used.  Door 
closers  are,  however,  recommended  to  insure 
doors  always  being  fully  closed,  as  occasionally, 
through  negligence,  doors  are  left  partly  open 
when  not  equipped  with  closers. 


NOTES 

Sequence  Relays  are  required  in  Pennsyl¬ 
vania  and  New  Jersey.  New  York  State, 
Baltimore  and  Washington,  D.C.,  require 
that  keys  be  provided  for  unlocking  doors 
on  all  floors  from  the  corridor  side.  (This 
of  course  does  not  apply  to  Push  Button 
or  Dual  Control  Elevators.) 

Note — Electrical  and  Mechanical  Interlocks ,  de¬ 
scribed  in  paragraph  “A”  under  Dual  Control  and 
Push  Button  Elevators ,  will  meet  the  requirements 
of  the  Pennsylvania  code,  and  can  be  used  with  all 
types  of  elevators.  When  used  with  Straight  Car 
Switch  Elevators,  the  cam  must,  however,  be  manu¬ 
ally  operated. 

This  device  is  adaptable  for  use  with  Pneumatic 
Operators  ( Side  arm  engines )  and  Barlock  Inter¬ 
locks  as  well  as  Door  Closers. 


GENERAL  SPECIFICATIONS 
FOR  ELEVATOR  DOOR  HARDWARE 


All  hardware  shall  be  of  dependable  and 
recognized  manufacture  subject  to  the 
Architect's  approval 

Hangers — Hangers  may  be  of  sheave, 
roller  or  ball  bearing  type,  and  shall 
be  of  sufficient  weight  and  strength  to 
support  the  doors  specified  for  the 
installation. 

Hangers  shall  be  so  constructed  as  to 
insure  quiet,  smooth  operation  and  to 
take  care  of  the  up-thrust  always  prev¬ 
alent  in  elevator  doors,  particularly 
where  pneumatic  operators  are  used. 
Hangers  are  provided  with  pivoting 
devices  when  doors  are  combination 


Classification  of  Hangers 

Single-Speed — One  door  moving  in  one 
direction. 

Two-Speed — Two  doors  moving  in  one 
direction,  one  at  twice  the  speed  of  the 
other. 

Note — Gear  or  compensating  devices  in  the 
hangers  are  omitted  when  door  closers  or  pneu¬ 
matic  operators  are  used,  as  the  closer  arms 
operate  both  doors. 

Three-Speed — Three  doors  moving  in 
one  direction,  fast  door  at  triple  the 
speed  of  slow  door  and  intermediate 
door  at  twice  the  speed  of  slow  door. 

Note — When  standard  door  closers  or  pneumat¬ 
ic  operators  are  used,  gear  or  compensating 
devices  in  the  hangers  are  only  required  between 
the  intermediate  and  slow  doors,  as  closer  arms 
operate  the  fast  and  intermediate  doors. 

Gear  or  compensating  devices  in  the  hangers  are 
entirely  omitted  when  special  door  closers  or 
pneumatic  operators  are  used,  as  the  closer  arms 
operate  all  three  doors. 


Center-Parting — Two  doors  moving  si¬ 
multaneously  in  opposite  directions. 

Note — Gear  or  chain  devices  in  the  hangers  are 
omitted  only  when  overhead  pneumatic  operators 
are  used. 

Two  -  Speed  Center  -  Parting  (Four 
Doors) — Two  sets  of  two-speed  doors 
mov  ing  simultaneously  in  opposite  di¬ 
rections. 

Note — The  only  practical  method  of  operation 
is  by  means  of  overhead  pneumatic  operators,  in 
which  case,  gear,  chain  or  compensating  devices 
in  the  hangers  are  omitted. 

Pneumatic  Door  Operators — Side  arm 
engines  are  used  with  single,  two  and 
three-speed  doors;  overhead  engines 
with  center-parting  and  two-speed  cen¬ 
ter-parting  doors,  altlio  side  arm  type 
can  also  be  used  with  center-parting 
doors. 

Doors  shall  be  equipped  with  pneumat¬ 
ic  operators  which  shall  automatically 
open  and  close  the  doors  without  undue 
noise  or  slamming  and  without  any 
rebound  action.  Operators  are  controlled 
by  means  of  a  cam  attached  to  the 
car  which  functions  automatically  in 
the  case  of  self-leveling  elevators  and 
manually  when  elevators  are  straight 
car  switch  type. 

The  operating  arms  of  this  device, 
being  in  a  straight  line  when  doors  are 
closed,  act  as  a  lock,  making  it  impossi¬ 
ble  to  open  the  doors  from  the  corridor 
side.  Operating  arms  are  finished  in 
black  or  other  painted  finish. 


slide  and  swing  type. 


A  parking  valve  is  usually  provided  for 
all  ground  floor  openings  so  that  doors 
can  be  opened  with  a  key  from  the 
corridor  side. 

Note — If  desired ,  air  compressors  can  be  shut 
down  at  any  time,  and  the  doors  operated  manu¬ 
ally,  the  same  as  if  equipped  with  door  closers. 

Air  Compressors,  Etc.  (For  Pneumat¬ 
ic  Door  Operators)— At  a  location, 
predetermined  and  shown  on  the 
drawings,  the  contractor  for  pneumatic 
operators  shall  furnish  and  install  du¬ 
plicate  direct-connected  motor-driven 
air  compressors,  each  of  sufficient  ca¬ 
pacity  to  meet  the  demands  of  the  door- 
operating  equipment.  He  is  also  to 
provide  necessary  tanks,  gauges,  valves, 
automatic  motor -starting  equipment, 
piping,  etc.,  to  make  a  complete  in¬ 
stallation. 

In  the  event  air  compressors,  etc.,  are 
furnished  and  installed  under  separate 
contract,  which  is  very  often  the  case, 
the  contractor  furnishing  the  compres¬ 
sors  shall  supply  sufficient  air  pressure 
at  the  bottom  of  hatchways  to  operate 
the  pneumatic  devices.  All  piping, 
pressure  regulators,  tanks,  etc.,  from 
this  point  are  to  be  furnished  and  in¬ 
stalled  by  the  contractor  for  pneumatic 
operators,  including  connections  to  air 
outlets  at  the  bottom  of  hatches. 

Door  Closers — Doors  shall  be  equipped 
with  door  closers  of  the  spring-hydrau¬ 
lic  type.  The  doors  are  opened  manual¬ 
ly,  and  the  door  closers  noiselessly  and 
automatically  close  the  doors.  When 
doors  are  closed,  the  closer  arms,  being 
in  a  straight  line,  act  as  a  lock,  making 
it  impossible  to  open  the  doors  from 
the  corridor  side. 


When  door  closers  are  used  in  connec- 
nection  with  Push  Button  or  Dual 
Control  Elevators,  the  door -operating 
arms  remain  in  a  broken  position  when 
doors  are  fully  closed,  so  that  upon 
arrival  of  car  at  floor  the  doors  can  be 
opened  from  either  side. 

Special  provisions  are  made  for  dis¬ 
connecting  the  closer  arms  when  doors 
are  combination  slide  and  swing  type. 
Closer  arms  are  finished  in  black  or 
other  painted  finish. 

Keys  for  unlocking  doors  from  corridor 
side  are  usually  provided  for  ground 
floor  openings,  except  when  used  with 
Push  Button  or  Dual  Control  Eleva¬ 
tors. 

Supports — 3  x  3  x  %£  structural  steel 
angle  support  shall  be  provided  for 
each  door  closer. 

4  x  4^2  x  3/g"  structural  steel  angle 
support  shall  be  provided  for  each 
pneumatic  operator  of  the  side  engine 
type. 

Special  framing  shall  be  provided  for 
pneumatic  operators  of  the  overhead 
type. 

Supports  and  framing  are  included  as  a 
part  of  the  frame  construction. 

Electric  Interlocks— Electric  interlocks 
including  wiring  shall  be  provided  for 
each  opening.  These  devices  are  con¬ 
nected  to  and  operated  by  the  door- 
operating  arms  of  the  pneumatic  opera¬ 
tors  or  door  closers.  They  are  so  de¬ 
signed  that  when  any  door  is  opened, 
the  elevator  control  circuit  through  the 
interlock  is  opened,  making  it  impossi¬ 
ble  to  move  the  elevator  until  the  doors 
in  that  hatch  are  closed. 


Emergency  Release  Switches — An 
emergency  release  switch,  including 
necessary  wiring,  shall  be  installed  in 
each  elevator  cab.  Switch  is  operated 
by  a  push  button  protected  by  a  “break- 
glass  cover"  and  is  so  connected  that 
continuous  pressure  of  the  button  will 
short-circuit  and  nullify  the  interlock 
system  so  that  elevator  may  be  operat¬ 
ed  (in  case  of  emergency)  while  doors 
in  that  hatch  are  open.  The  instant 
pressure  is  removed  from  the  button 
the  interlocks  again  become  effective. 

Rack  and  Pawl  Devices — Each  opening 
shall  be  equipped  with  a  rack  and  pawl 
device.  The  pawl  is  applied  to  the  doors 
and  engages  rack  attached  to  sills 
locking  the  doors  during  the  last  six 
inches  of  closing  movement.  This  de¬ 
vice  permits  the  advancement  of  con¬ 
tact  in  the  electric  interlocks  so  that 
the  operating  circuit  of  the  elevator 
is  closed  when  doors  are  within  three 
to  four  inches  of  their  closed  position, 
thus  safely  permitting  accelerated  start¬ 
ing  of  elevators. 

Car  Trips  and  Striker  Plates — A  car 

trip  shall  be  provided  on  each  elevator 
platform  and  a  striker  plate  on  the 
doors  at  the  ground  floor.  This  device 
holds  the  doors  in  an  open  position 
when  car  is  at  rest  until  released  by 
means  of  a  foot  pedal  installed  in  the 
car.  Where  desired,  striker  plates  can 
be  provided  for  doors  on  all  floors. 
Car  trips  and  striker  plates  are  not 
practical  for  Push  Button  or  Dual 
Control  Elevators.  Where  devices  for 
holding  the  doors  open  are  required  in 
connection  with  elevators  of  this  type, 
neat  swing  catches  are  recommended. 


Barlock  Interlocks — Doors  shall  be 
equipped  with  barlock  interlocks,  con¬ 
sisting  of  a  latch  rod  mounted  verti¬ 
cally  on  the  door  which  engages  a 
combination  keeper  and  interlock  at¬ 
tached  to  the  hanger  or  door  frame, 
locking  the  doors  when  in  a  fully  closed 
position.  Interlocks  are  arranged  so 
that  when  any  door  is  unlocked,  the 
elevator  control  circuit  through  the 
interlock  is  opened,  making  it  impossi¬ 
ble  to  move  the  elevator  until  the 
doors  in  that  hatch  are  closed  and 
mechanically  locked. 

Latch  rods  may  be  had  in  polished  or 
dull  brass,  or  in  a  black  finish. 

Keys  for  unlocking  doors  from  the 
corridor  side  are  usually  provided  for 
ground  floor  openings. 

Bar  Locks — Doors  shall  be  equipped 
with  bar  locks.  These  are  similar  to 
barlock  interlocks,  with  the  exception 
that  interlock  is  not  provided,  the 
latch  rod  engaging  a  keeper  mounted 
on  the  hanger  or  door  frame  instead. 

Gravity  Locks — Doors  shall  be  equipped 
with  gravity  locks  of  the  mortise  or 
surface  type,  consisting  of  a  gravity 
operated  latch  attached  to  the  door 
which  engages  a  keeper  applied  to  the 
hanger  or  door  frame,  locking  the  doors 
when  in  a  fully  closed  position.  Mortise 
locks  are  provided  with  cup  escutche¬ 
ons  or  flush  pulls  on  the  shaft  side. 

Cup  escutcheons  or  flush  pulls  with 
handles  are  also  provided  for  corridor 
side  of  both  mortise  and  surface  type 
locks  when  used  with  Push  Button  or 
Dual  Control  Elevators. 


provide  proper  clearance  for  the  pulls 
to  avoid  the  possibility  of  pinching  the 
hand  of  person  using  the  elevator. 

Handles  and  pulls  are  usually  furnished 
in  polished  bronze. 


Mortise  type  locks  are  usually  furnished 
in  polished  bronze,  and  surface  type 
in  a  black  finish,  unless  otherwise 
specified. 

Keys  for  unlocking  doors  from  corridor 
side  are  ordinarily  provided  for  ground 
floor  openings,  except  when  used  with 
Push  Button  or  Dual  Control  Eleva¬ 
tors. 

Latches — Doors  shall  be  equipped  with 
latches  of  either  the  mortise  or  surface 
type.  These  are  usually  furnished  in 
polished  bronze  and  are  similar  to 
gravity  locks,  with  the  exception  that 
latch  bar  is  operated  by  a  small  spring 
contained  in  the  latch  instead  of  by 
gravity. 

Door  Handles  or  Flush  Pulls — Doors 
shall  be  equipped  with  door  handles, 
flush  cup  pulls  or  anti-pinch  flush  cup 
pulls  on  both  sides  to  permit  the  open¬ 
ing  of  doors  when  car  is  at  landing. 

Door  handles  are  especially  recom¬ 
mended  for  both  sides  of  doors  when 
equipped  with  door  closers,  as  they 
provide  a  better  grip  for  the  hand, 
making  it  easier  to  open  the  doors. 
W  here  these  are  used,  doors  when  in  a 
full  open  position  must  project  into 
the  opening  a  suffiicent  distance  to 


Butt  Hinges — Each  swing  door  shall  be 
equipped  with  not  less  than  1^2  pair  of 
43/2x43/2  or  5x5  ball  bearing  butt 
hinges  with  loose  pins.  These  can  be 
supplied  in  wrought  steel,  bronze  or 
cast  iron,  and  in  a  plated  or  polished 
finish. 

Flush  Bolts — Each  swing  door  shall  be 
provided  with  a  top  and  bottom  flush 
bolt,  and  each  sliding  door  with  two 
flush  bolts  at  the  bottom  to  act  as 
guides.  These  may  be  had  in  cast 
bronze  or  iron,  and  in  a  plated  or 
polished  finish. 

Sequence  Relays — Sequence  relays 
make  it  necessary  for  the  operator 
to  observe  the  proper  sequence  of 
operation:  to  first  close  the  doors  and 
then  move  the  control  switch  to  the 
starting  position.  If  he  fails  to  do  so, 
the  elevator  will  not  start  until  control 
switch  has  been  returned  to  the  stop 
position  after  the  doors  are  closed. 

Sequence  relays  are  ordinarily  included 
in  the  elevator  contract.

GENERAL  DESCRIPTION 
OF  HOLLOW  STEEL  DUMBWAITER 
ENCLOSURES 


Materials — Materials  used  are  the  best 
of  their  respective  kinds.  Steel  is  of  the 
highest  grade  commercial  furniture 
stock  of  U.  S.  standard  gauge. 

Workmanship — All  work  is  executed  by 
skilled  mechanics  and  is  of  the  finest 
grade;  neat  in  appearance  and  free 
from  defects. 

Doors  (Metal  Panel — Slide-up  Type) 

— Panel  mouldings  are  cold  drawn  to 
profile,  and  fitted  to  panels  constructed 
of  two  18  gauge  steel  plates  separated 
by  heat -retarding  filler.  Panel  mould¬ 
ings  are  mitred  and  welded  at  corners, 
forming  a  continuous  frame  around 
panels. 

Stiles  and  rails  are  formed  of  18  gauge 
steel  and  continuously  interlocked  to 
panel  mouldings.  Stiles  are  fitted  to 
rails,  reinforced  and  welded  at  joints. 
Stiffener  channels  extending  full  height 
are  welded  inside  the  doors  in  both 
sides. 

Compressed  cork  is  provided  in  stiles 
and  rails  to  eliminate  metallic  sound. 
Two  rubber  bumpers  are  secured  in 
the  bottom  of  each  door. 

Doors  (Metal  Panel — Hinged  Type) 

Hinged  doors  are  constructed  similar 
to  slide-up  type,  except  that  stiffener 
channels  extending  full  width  are  placed 
in  top  and  bottom  of  doors.  Rubber 
bumpers  are  not  required. 


Doors  (Flush — Slide-up  Type)  -Doors 
are  constructed  of  two  18  gauge  steel 
plates  locked  together  with  special 
interlocking  members  welded  to  plates. 
These  members  extend  full  height  of 
doors  and  are  spaced  not  more  than  6" 
apart. 

Continuous  reinforcements  in  top  and 
bottom  and  stiffener  channels  in  both 
sides  are  welded  inside  the  doors. 

Compressed  cork  is  provided  in  doors 
to  eliminate  metallic  sound. 

Two  rubber  bumpers  are  secured  in 
the  bottom  of  each  door. 

Doors  (Flush-  Hinged  Type) — These 
are  constructed  the  same  as  slide-up 
type,  except  that  reinforcements  are 
placed  in  both  sides  and  channels  in 
top  and  bottom  of  doors.  Rubber 
bumpers  are  not  required. 

Doors  (Glass  Panel  Type) — Glass  pan¬ 
els  are  retained  by  removable  mould¬ 
ings  which  are  secured  to  stationary 
mouldings  with  oval  head  machine 
screws.  Mouldings  are  cold  drawn  to 
profde  and  are  made  into  frames  with 
corners  mitred  and  welded.  Stiles  and 
rails  are  interlocked  to  stationary 
mouldings  as  described  under  “Metal 
Panel  Type.'' 

When  doors  are  “Flush  Type,”  sta¬ 
tionary  mouldings  are  interlocked  to 
plates  in  a  similar  manner. 


Glass — Glass,  usually  furnished  by  us, 
is  set  in  rubber  inserts  and  putty,  and 
held  in  place  by  removable  panel 
mouldings. 

Frames  for  Slide-up  Doors  (Combina¬ 
tion  Buck  and  Jamb  Type) — Frames 
and  stools  are  formed  of  14  or  16  gauge 
steel,  welded  at  corners — with  returns  on 
stools  mitred  and  welded.  Side  mem¬ 
bers  are  provided  with  weight  boxes 
having  removable  covers  for  access  to 
weights,  and  loose  stops  for  holding 
doors  in  place.  Two  rubber  door  bump¬ 
ers  are  secured  in  the  head  of  each 
frame. 

Single  panel  units  have  intermediate 
head  pieces  formed  of  14  or  16  gauge 
steel  welded  to  side  members,  and  16 
or  1 8  gauge  steel  panels  for  backing  up 
plaster.  Panels  are  secured  to  head 
and  side  members  by  machine  screws. 

Upper  or  fixed  panels  for  double  panel 
units  are  formed  of  16  or  18  gauge  steel, 
paneled  to  match  doors,  and  secured 
to  head  and  side  members  by  machine 
screws. 

Dumbwaiters  in  series  are  provided 
with  mullions  formed  of  14  or  16  gauge 
steel,  having  weight  boxes  with  re¬ 
movable  covers  for  access  to  weights, 
and  loose  stops  for  holding  doors  in 
place. 

Frames  for  Hinged  Doors  (Combina¬ 
tion  Buck  and  Jamb  Type) — Frames 
and  stools  are  formed  of  14  or  16  gauge 
steel,  welded  at  corners — with  returns 
on  stools  mitred  and  welded. 


Frames  for  Hinged  Doors  (Rough 
Buck  and  Cabinet  Jamb  Type) — 

Bucks  are  formed  of  14  gauge  steel, 
welded  at  corners.  Jambs  and  stools, 
formed  of  18  gauge  steel,  are  secured  to 
bucks  by  machine  screws.  Returns  on 
stools  are  mitred  and  welded. 

Angle  Supports — Frames  are  supported 
independent  of  the  walls  by  two  struc¬ 
tural  steel  angles  secured  to  floors  and 
beams  above. 

Casings  and  Aprons  —  Casings  and 
aprons  are  of  18  gauge  cold  drawn 
shapes  with  corners  and  returns  mitred, 
welded,  and  secured  to  frames  by  con¬ 
cealed  fastenings  or  oval  head  machine 
screws. 

Hardware — All  work  is  mortised,  rein¬ 
forced,  drilled  and  tapped  to  receive 
hardware. 


When  dumbwaiters  are  slide-up  type, 
hardware  consists  of  cast  iron  roller 
bearing  side  pulleys  and  sectional 
weights,  steel  or  bronze  cable  chain, 
and  flush  or  bar  lifts. 

Hardware  for  hinged  dumbwaiters  con¬ 
sists  of  steel  or  bronze  spring  butt 
hinges,  and  catches  or  latches.  When 
dumbwaiters  are  electrically  operated, 
pulls  are  used  instead  of  catches  or 
latches. 

With  exception  of  pulleys,  weights  and 
chains,  hardware  is  usually  included 
under  separate  contract,  but  applied 
at  our  factory. 

It  is  necessary  that  hardware  be  to 
templet,  and  that  we  be  supplied 
with  schedules  and  templets  of  hard¬ 
ware  required  for  each  opening  before 
materials  can  be  placed  in  production; 


as  all  mortising  for  hardware  is  done 
while  steel  is  “flat.”  Templets  can  be 
either  blue  print  or  physical. 

Where  required,  special  provisions  are 
made  to  accommodate  equipment  for 
electric  dumbwaiters.  Details  giving 
locations,  etc.,  of  this  equipment  are 
required. 

Prime  Finish  (Doors) — Before  assem¬ 
bling,  metal  panels  are  painted  on  the 
inside.  After  assembling,  all  oil,  dirt 
and  rust  are  removed.  Doors  are  then 
thoroughly  coated  on  the  inside  and 
outside  with  rust-resisting  paint  by  a 
dip  process,  and  baked. 

Exposed  surfaces  are  filled  where  re¬ 
quired,  each  coat  baked  and  sanded. 
Priming  coat  of  paint  is  then  applied 
and  baked. 

Prime  Finish  (All  Other  Work) — 

After  assembling,  all  oil,  dirt  and  rust 
are  removed.  Exposed  surfaces  are 
filled  where  required,  each  coat  baked 
and  sanded.  Priming  coat  of  paint  is 
then  applied  to  all  surfaces,  both  inside 
and  outside,  and  baked. 

Plain  Enamel  Finish — Prime  coat  is 
thoroughly  sanded,  after  which  three 


coats  of  enamel — of  a  color  as  selected - 
are  applied  to  all  exposed  surfaces. 
Each  coat  is  baked  and  rubbed,  the 
final  coat  being  rubbed  to  an  egg-shell 
gloss. 

Grained  Finish — Prime  coat  is  thor¬ 
oughly  sanded,  after  which  all  exposed 
surfaces  are  hand  grained  to  match 
sample  selected,  and  then  baked.  Two 
coats  of  finishing  varnish  are  then 
applied,  each  coat  baked  and  rubbed, 
the  final  coat  being  rubbed  to  an  egg¬ 
shell  gloss. 

Crating— The  finished  products  are  sub¬ 
stantially  crated  to  guard  against  dam¬ 
age  in  transit. 

Combination  type  frames,  when  fin¬ 
ished  in  baked  enamel,  are  protected 
by  oiled  paper  and  crated  individually. 
Crating  is  not  removed  until  after 
walls  have  been  plastered 

Erection — All  work  is  erected  plumb  and 
true  by  skilled  mechanics.  Angle  sup¬ 
ports  and  frames  are  set  before  walls 
are  built.  The  doors,  casings,  etc.,  are 
erected  after  plastering  has  been  com¬ 
pleted  and  the  floors  are  broom  clean.
